Banking some trail karma this morning on Dead Rabbits. The biggest ones always fall right along the trail!

Well...instead of running a Drops and Jumps clinic today, I went for a little stroll up Back to Hell for a lookie and some trail work.

We had all 4 seasons in a day. I would have rather been on the bike ... but a trail walk is always good!

Woohoo!

🚵‍♂️ The Hinton Bike Park is officially OPEN for the 2026 season! 🙌

The park is riding great overall, but there may still be a few soft spots throughout the trails. Please ride cautiously and respectfully to help prevent trail damage while conditions continue to dry out.

Just a friendly reminder that there is a spring maintenance night scheduled on May 19th. Come on out and help get the trails in shape for riding! Pizza will be provided to volunteers. A huge thanks to all the volunteers who help keep the bike park running strong each season!

Ride safe, have fun, and enjoy the dirt! 🤘

Everyone wants to have their online life admired and envied by everyone else out there. I’m no exception, but I also believe that you gotta be honest about the not-so-enviable parts, as well.
This is one of them. I was so excited to bring a puppy into my life (not my first - puppy, that is), that I ignored the realities of running a summer business that keeps me away from home and from a puppy for long days, often back-to-back.

After a few absolutely wonderful days with Phineas, the reality of what I was taking on landed hard and I made the incredibly hard decision to return him where he will be available to make someone else’s life even more amazing than he made mine for these few, short days.

Huge kudos to the Hinton SPCA who provided nothing but support and understanding when it would have been easy to criticize and judge. Thank you.

This is the perfect mountain bike clinic for a tune-up course if you're just starting to enjoy the local trails on your mountain bike or you want to focus on establishing a strong base for your skills in order to progress to the next level of fun!
